Inside the murderous far-Left: Following the murder of Charlie Kirk, healthcare CEO Brian Thompson, & various Donald Trump supporters, shootings on ICE agents and police officers, Transgender mass shootings, BLM & Antifa riots, we must ask what is fueling the far-Left, and how their violent operations can be shut down. I interviewed an ex member of Antifa, various far-Left supporters in Portland, and journalists covering the far-Left to understand their motivations. Their cause changes year by year - there was Occupy Wall Street, then BLM, Trans, George Floyd, and now ‘anti-fascism’. There are a core of thuggish, mentally ill people looking for a cause to fit their fight. They are usually young, very online, and looking for their own community/cult to immerse themselves into. These dangerous people are now being told, nonstop, that they live in a fascist dictatorship. They believe, in part due to the media and senior Democrats, that Donald Trump is Hitler, ICE is the Gestapo, children are being “kidnapped” by the Nazi government (ICE illegal migration raids), and perhaps they are next. Many believe they are already in a civil war. One ex-Antifa man told me he knows people preparing at gun ranges for violence. Violence is their ideology. They celebrated Charlie Kirk’s brutal murder, and that of Brian Thompson the Healthcare CEO. They spray murderous slogans. A few of the slogans I saw in Portland: Kill Trump Kill ICE Kill pigs Kidnap ICE I want you to kill Nazis with me Molotovs melt ICE There is a subsection of the far-Left which takes this very seriously. The Trump DoJ has targeted an Antifa cell already. The main target, for now, is ICE officers, and Donald Trump. The list of people they believe are “Nazis” grows by the day. With media attention now focusing on the “danger” JD Vance poses, he may be their next target. They convince themselves that Nazis are fair game for violence. It has been a popular meme to say “punch a Nazi” for years. They dehumanize their enemies, believe they are just in their cause, and rile each other up on Internet forums. There is a significant amount of mental illness among these groups, particularly relating to Transgenderism. There is also a homeless element. Violence can range from getting into fights with Trump supporters outside ICE facilities, to full blown rioting, to political assassination. There is “no criticism to the Left”, and these acts are celebrated and encouraged. The major problem for the Trump admin is so much of Antifa is decentralized. Law enforcement will have a tough job policing these people, but as we have seen with Thomas Crooks and others, they usually leave significant internet presences. The danger of the far-Left cannot be underestimated. Speaking with
@Andy Ngo he worries about who will be the next conservative murdered.
